Ok, so I finally figured out what I don't like about this: it's the fact
that the RES0 mask only ever reduces, but we have no way of ensuring that
by construction with this approach. In other words, it's a bit brittle to
keep all of these things defined entirely separately from one another.

How about a small change so that we define things like:

#define SYS_PMSEVFR_EL1_RES0_8_2 SYS_PMSEVFR_EL1_RES0 &
~(...)

#define SYS_PMSEVFR_EL1_RES0_8_3 SYS_PMSEVFR_EL1_RES0_8_2 &
~(...)

where the '...' parts identify the bits that are no longer RES0 for that
version of the architecture?

What do you think?

Will
